Atom," were announced last night
by Dick riegel, '55, Opera general
secretary.

Detroit Reds'
Trial Delayed
By Objections
DETROIT-()-Sustained ob-
jections by defense attorneys yes-
terday cut heavily into testimony
by a key government witness in
the conspiracy trial of six Mich-
igan Communist leaders.
The witness, John Lautner, a
former Communist national par-
ty officer; under questioning by
° Fred W. Kaess, U. S. District At-
torney, sought to tell a Federal
Court jury of the indoctrination
procedures and party taught
classes for "Professional revolu-
tionists."
ERNEST Goodman, represent-
ing three of the defendants, Mrs.
Helen Winter, William Allan, and
Philip Schatz, objected through,
,out Lautner's testimony.
Goodman termed the testi-
mony, much of which pertained
to party activities in the early
thirties "outdated and irrele-
vant to the conspiracy charges
against the defendants."
Lautner; on the stand for the
t third day as the government's first
witness, told the jury of Com-
munist party; training schools
which he attended in 1930 and
party schools which he taught up
to 1941.

A. Picard strike from the record
Lautner's testimony of his party
assignments in Canada.
He also, through sustained
objections, forced Lautnerto re-
late only what could be substan-
tiated through government evi-
dence.
Introduced in support of Laut-
ner's testimony and the govern-
ment's case were excerpts from
the Communist Manifesto, speech-
es by Joseph Stalin, and writing
of William Z. Foster, former head
of the Communist Party of the
United States.

PANMUNJOM-(/P)-The Com-
munists yesterday accepted an Al-
lied plan to let staff officers try
breaking the deadlock that is
holding up preliminary talks on a
Korea peace conference.
But a short.distance away at an-
other meeting, the Reds made a
surprise predawn demand that
they be allowed to interview balky
Chinese POWs instead of the
North Koreans originally sched-
uled-bringing yesterday's prison-.
ers' explanations to a complete
standstill.
THE preliminary peace confer-
ence talks went into indefinite re-
cess after a 20-minute session be-
tween U.S. envoy Arthur Dean andx
Communist negotiators.4
In their 11 sessions since Oct.
26 they have failed to settle an
agenda for the preliminary
talks.
The Communists want to dis-
cuss first the question of invit-
ing neutrals to the main confer-
ence. The Allies want to decide on
the time and place of the confer-
ence first, then listen to Red ideas
on the matter of who will attend.
DEAN PROPOSED Wednesday
that the talks be handed over to
staff officers or advisers, two from
each side, who could form two sub-
committees and discuss the ques-
tions simultaneously, a procedure
that was used successfully in the
long Korean armistice negotia-
tions.
The advisers will meet today
at 8 p.m. (CST).
In the prisoners' explanations,
the Reds suddenly demanded that
Chinese prisoners left over from
Wednesday's sessions be produced
for explanations. k
An Indian command spokes-
man said those Chinese not in-
terviewed Wednesday were re-
turned to their compounds along
with those who hadt refused re-
patriation.
"It is difficult for us to provide
Chinese POWs this morning since
they are not separated," he said.
The latest stalling tactic came

oners interviewed in drawn-out
sessions.

TRIESTE -- OP) - Pro-Italan

As hundreds of students
crowded around the church for
the ceremony, a riot police jeep
moved into the throng. Students

Witnesses said the police tried
to fight free of the crowd, but
failed. Before the fight ended it

Hubbard of malfeasance, non-

HUBBARD struck back by say-

conduct of circuit court-especial-
ly the grand jury and the court's
handling of funds.
"This.petition is a confession

Gov. Williams said he could not

two-year term. Observers noted
that the question, of whether pos-
